Description

The War of the Worlds (Paramount, 1953). One Sheet (27" X
41").
Based on the classic novel by H. G. Wells, this is the story of an
invasion of Earth by hostile Martians, an invasion against which
all human technology is useless. Although Paramount secured the
rights to Wells' novel in 1924, and had originally secured Cecil B.
DeMille and later Alfred Hitchcock to direct, it took until the
1950s for production to begin. The result was a landmark science
fiction film, made memorable by its incredible special effects
(which garnered a well-deserved Oscar). It remains a classic of the
genre, one of the best sci-fi films of any era. This colorful one
sheet shows only a pinpoint crossfold separation, making it a great
find for collectors. Very Fine+ on Linen.

I know for a fact that the sale by Heritage was way beyond what I was offered by other people. If I had to do it over again, I would absolutely choose Heritage again.
